I'm a bit torn on this one. While I enjoyed the storytelling immensely, I constantly was baffled by her reasoning (or lack thereof). She so wishy washy and sure then unsure of herself. I totally identify with certain aspects of the story, but other parts seem completely asinine. And the fact that she lashes out whenever someone points this out is so frustrating. And while I'm a big fan of happy endings, I felt like this story left too much on the table. What's the deal with Jenny? How does Anu 'complete' the list? Where is all this money from that she suddenly has to buy a yoga studio, fly last minute to and from England, and support regular life on a PART TIME nursing salary? Maybe I'm being nit picky, but this stuff bothered me.
